Editorial standards

How we research, publish and correct our work.

Our editorial goal is to produce useful, understandable content while maintaining a clear distinction between evidence, interpretation and commercial relationships.

Sources and evidenceWe prioritise government agencies, peer-reviewed research, universities, regulators, official statistics, recognised institutions and original reports.
AccuracyWe aim to verify factual claims before publication and review articles as new information becomes available.
CorrectionsMaterial factual errors are corrected promptly. Substantive corrections may be identified within the article where appropriate.
Editorial independenceAdvertisers, affiliate partners and businesses mentioned in our content do not determine our editorial conclusions.

Historical sources

Separating historical evidence from current analysis

GarnautReview.org.au preserves an archive of material from the 2008 Garnaut Climate Change Review and the 2011 Update. Historical material is retained for research, reference and preservation purposes. It should be understood in the context of the period in which it was produced. The existence of a historical document in the archive does not necessarily mean that its forecasts, statistics or policy recommendations represent current conditions or the editorial position of this publication.

Commercial relationships

Advertising, sponsorship and affiliate links

Garnaut Review may generate revenue through advertising, affiliate relationships, sponsorships or commercial partnerships. Where content has been paid for or materially influenced by a commercial arrangement, we aim to disclose that relationship clearly. Paid relationships do not guarantee favourable coverage. Some pages may contain affiliate links. If a reader follows one of these links and completes a qualifying action, Garnaut Review may receive a commission.

AI-assisted tools

Human editorial responsibility

Writers and editors may use digital and AI-assisted tools during research, drafting, editing, data organisation or production. Such tools do not replace editorial responsibility. Published content remains subject to human review, and sources should be independently checked when accuracy depends on them.
